'This book is an extraordinary piece of literature ... It is simply a masterpiece and even the most experienced statistician will learn a thing or two from this text. ... It is more than a mere cookery book type of statistical commands, output and interpretation but, rather, a deep understanding and appreciation of the statistical thinking process. ... The book is well written and would be good reading for applied statisticians as well as all post-graduate and faculty members who interact with data. Libraries should purchase a copy.'

Students with a fear of the technical mathematics of stochastics, but with a need for practical analyses of time-correlated data, may find this text useful before a formal course in stochastics."

Synopsis
This introduction to ways of modelling a wide variety of phenomena that occur over time is accessible to anyone with a basic knowledge of statistical ideas. J.K. Lindsey concentrates on tractable models involving simple processes for which explicit probability models, hence likelihood functions, can be specified. (These models are the most useful in statistical applications modelling empirical data.) Examples are drawn from physical, biological and social sciences, to show how the book's underlying ideas can be applied, and data sets and R code are supplied for them.

Author resource page: http: //popgen.unimaas.nl/ jlindsey/books.html, This 2004 introduction to ways of modelling phenomena that occur over time is accessible to anyone with a basic knowledge of statistical ideas. Examples from physical, biological and social sciences show how the principles can be put into practice: data sets and R code for these are supplied on author's website., This book was first published in 2004. Many observed phenomena, from the changing health of a patient to values on the stock market, are characterised by quantities that vary over time: stochastic processes are designed to study them. This book introduces practical methods of applying stochastic processes to an audience knowledgeable only in basic statistics. It covers almost all aspects of the subject and presents the theory in an easily accessible form that is highlighted by application to many examples. These examples arise from dozens of areas, from sociology through medicine to engineering. Complementing these are exercise sets making the book suited for introductory courses in stochastic processes. Software (available from www.cambridge.org) is provided for the freely available R system for the reader to apply to all the models presented.
